Question

In a 200 g solution of glucose with 10% mass per cent, amount of glucose will be:

Hint:

For mass percent: Mass of solute = (Mass percent × Mass of solution)/100.

Answer 1

Step 1: Mass percent formula.
Mass percent = \( \frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}} \times 100 \).
Step 2: Calculation.
\[ \frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{200} \times 100 = 10 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \text{Mass of solute} = 20 \, g \] Step 3: Conclusion.
Therefore, glucose present =
20 g.
